A Walk in the Woods

Usually I go for the paper-and-glue versions of books, but the audio book for A Walk in the Woods was even more riveting and entertaining. Bill Bryson has such a dry sense of humor that it can only be truly appreciated in audio form. I also loved hiking from an everyman's perspective. By having the story of challenging the Appalachian Trail by someone who hasn't been training or marathon hiking his whole life, I was brought into the story more easily and could appreciate every little laugh and hardship all the more.
